Night Life
Jerry Wallace
Written by Willie Nelson, Walter Breeland, and Paul Buskirk
Not charted as a single by Wallace but Rusty Draper put it on the Pop chart
at # 57 in 1963
Found all over the Country chart: Ray Price (1963, # 28); Claude Gray (1968, # 31)
Wlllie Nelson with the Nashville Brass (1980, # 20), B. J. Thomas (1986, # 59)
and as the flip of "Jukebox Saturday Night" by Roy Clark in 1986.

When the evenin' sun goes down
You will find me hangin' 'round
Oh, the night life, it ain't no good life
But it's my life

Many people just like me
Dreamin' of old used-to-be's
Oh, the night life, it ain't no good life
Ah, but it's my life

Listen to the blues that they're playin'
Listen what the blues are sayin'

Life is just another scene
In this old world of broken dreams
Oh, the night life, it ain't no good life
But it's my life

Oh, the night life ain't no good life
Oh, but it's my life

Yeah, it's my life
